As JT moaned, my attempt at the "there's an app for that" line fizzled out:

The new game that's sweeping the galaxy: end a SW quote with "There's an app for that.""I just got this bucket back together." "Agressive negotiations? What's that?" "You tell that slimy piece of worm-ridden filth he'll get no such pleasure from us." "Anakin; you're breaking my heart."
